Understanding Economic Nexus

What is Nexus?

Economic nexus is the connection between your business and a state that requires you to collect and remit sales tax. As your business grows, you may establish nexus by selling products, storing inventory, or hiring employees.

If you have nexus in a state, you may be required to register, collect & remit sales tax and file returns—even if your business isn't physically located there.

Because every state has its own rules and thresholds, determining where you have nexus can be confusing.

Nexus Assurance Group helps you identify your obligations and provides a clear path to staying compliant.

  • Did you know ?

    Since South Dakota v. Wayfair (2018), states can require out-of-state sellers to collect tax based on sales volume alone. Cross a state's economic nexus threshold — commonly $100,000 in sales or 200 transactions — and you must register, collect, and remit there.

  • Born in the Great Depression

    In 1930, a cash-strapped Mississippi enacted the nation's first modern retail sales tax — a 2% levy to rescue a treasury drained by the Depression. The idea spread fast.

  • You may owe Use Tax

    Bought equipment, software, or supplies and no sales tax was charged — say, from an out-of-state vendor? Your business still owes a matching “use tax” at the same rate.
